"So tell me..." Says Aliyah.

We're laying in bed together, and all I can think is that her arms are the best place to be in the entire galaxy.

"Yeah?" I ask.

"When did you realize that you liked me?"

I smile into the darkness.  I remember the moment all too vividly.

"Well... It was on that trip. Remember, the overnight one?  So you were dancing in the aisle, music blasting, and I realized..." 

I pause, a blush creeping over my face, exeptionally glad that she cant see, when she says,"That I'm extremely sexy when I dance?" 

I can practically hear her grinning.

"Well, yeah." I admit, "and then you paused and turned to me and asked if I had a song preference."

Aliyah laughs and kisses my forehead. "Yeah, I remember.  You asked if i had that song by P!NK, right?"

"Yeah." I smile at the memory, turning over to bury my face in her chest. 

"April, are you tired?" Aliyah asks.

I make a noise somewhere between a 'yes' and a muffled groan. 

"Because you know it's only ten o clock."

I shrug, which feels strange laying down.  Lifting my head up slightly, I say, "well, we could probably both use the extra sleep, and you've tired me out."

Aliyah chuckles and draws the blanket over us.  "Okay then.  Good night sweetie."

"Goodnight Aliyah," I say, laying my head back down.  I close my eyes and drift off to sleep in the most comfortable place in the world.
